LadyMacbeth Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 I am under my father's insurance for school and he told me that it runs out in Jan. and thats probably why I should not go on medication or see my therapist anymore. My sessions only run me about 10 dollars because of insurance and now a session will run me over one hundred dollars a week. So I really don't know what the hell I am going to do about this. Its impossible I will find a full-time job in the next few days that has benefits. I am freaking out about this. This is probably one of the reasons why I have cenceled so many appts. with my therapist because I have been through three in 5 years and not for any negatives reasons just because I left school. So if this is the case I may have to move back to my dad's and change therapist but I am here right now and I am not doing any better because to many things here are triggering my depression and anxiety and atleast in NY I am not a recluse. But, I cannot stop seeing a therapist when I am getting worse. I don't think my father knows but I am going to have a long talk with him but he just doesn't listen. But, if I turn insane then I guess he will have to. I am not sure what to do. Baila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Hey, Ok.hmmm a few thoughts ( I hope) * Talk to your father like you say. See if he will cover some kind of insurance for you. Maybe just untill you find a job and can pay yourself? *Talk to your therapist. See if she would be willing to cut some kind of deal with you. You really dont know untill you ask huh? *Take a basic part time job for a while just to cover your therapy? There must be something out there that wont effect any other money you recive. Cleaning someones home? babysitting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daisy Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 This is a hard situation - def talk to ur dad for sure - see what can be done cause u NEED ur Therpist - **this brings up anger in me about the medical system in ur country - i mean here no matter how much $$ we have we have access to Dr and medical is free for most things if u are student or single parents even then its cheap and my psyc puts in on medicare - government incentive so i pay $0 to see him and hwen he has to charge its on my insuracne thats has NO CONNECTION to our Jobs, Schools WE PAY IT and its $40 every two week snad its reaonable nad fair for ALL CLASSES Rich or Poor - gosh it makes me mad that you have to even THINK Of the possiblity of Not having a Psyc(dr) when u need them and that $100 a week someone wants to charge u that, and that ur school/job dictates ur insurance - its mad - I hope hope hope things work out for you and that u can talk to ur dad and sort something out -u DESERVE and NEED SUPPORT. **If all else fails move to Australia!!!!!!

LadyMacbeth Posted December 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Thanks so much for your support Daisy. I am sure something will work out. The healthcare system in this country is horrible! I worked in this hellish retail job for two and a half years and they finally puts me at full-time last may which entitles me to benefits...but guess when I am elijible? Next July, over a year of waiting. Now I have left that job because it was triggering my depression I would not have waited thst long anyway! I remember this British guy my dad knew over here cut his mouth on a can of soda and took a flight back to England to get stitches because its so f-ing expensive. I am going to call my health care provider tom. because I recall them telling me it runs out in March even though my dad is telling me Jan 1. So I am going to double check that. I will figure something out. Love, Baila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
